๐Ÿ”„ Monthly Recap โ€“ 252 Day/1000X Futures Challenge
Not Financial Advice โ€“ Just a look into a personal challenge.
๐Ÿ“… Total Trading Days So Far: 36 (Friday, a 1-month recap)
๐Ÿ’ต Starting Capital: $625.00
๐Ÿ“ˆ Current Progress: Just shy of 10X +$6,034.16
using up to 10 micros , 5-15% daily margin
๐Ÿง  Mindset Check-In
This challenge has taught me more than I expected.
The shift from trading a larger account to managing a small one rewires your brain โ€” and thatโ€™s a good thing. Youโ€™re forced to respect boundaries. You're humbled. Youโ€™re reminded that discipline is a skill, not a suggestion.
๐Ÿ‘‰ If you start with more capital, you often bring old habits.
๐Ÿ‘‰ If you start small, you build new patterns โ€” intentionally.
๐Ÿงฉ Small gains start to add up. Small adjustments become big improvements.
And most importantly: you begin to master risk โ€” the one thing in trading thatโ€™s always in your control.
๐Ÿ’ก Trade Notes & Lessons
๐ŸŸข Took a long position during an Asia session,
trading Futures MNQ @ 23,300.25
๐ŸŽฏ Closed it for a strong win near 23,347.50โ€“23,350
โ›”๏ธ Stop was placed at session low โ€” never hit
โš ๏ธ Made an error this month โ€” added to my position, not realizing I was using minis instead of micros.
๐Ÿ’ฐ I closed the trade early because I hit my profit cap for the night.
๐Ÿ™ This wasnโ€™t about greed โ€” it was about protecting emotional balance.
โŒ Took a small loss this past week by breaking a rule.
๐Ÿ” But I recovered, corrected the behavior, and stayed on track. That's a win in itself.
๐Ÿ’ฌ Favorite Quote This Month:
โ€œIf you focus on what you could make, you will be temptedโ€ฆโ€
โ€“ Warren Buffett
๐Ÿ“– Full quote here; ๐Ÿ‘‡
This has been my anchor. Itโ€™s easy to chase numbers. But chasing discipline pays the real dividends.
๐Ÿ”ญ Looking Ahead
The journey to 1000X wonโ€™t happen overnight.
But hereโ€™s what I know:
โœ… Iโ€™m building brain muscle.
โœ… Iโ€™m getting sharper every week.
โœ… Iโ€™m protecting capital like itโ€™s already worth $1M.
Slow, steady, focused.
No shortcuts โ€” just one right step at a time. ๐Ÿฆˆ
